Below is the grow tent I made for this grow. It is made of thing insulated sheets wrapped in emergency shelter blanketing inside. My light I had wired with a bunch of light bulb sockets attached to a board. I thought I would have a little fun with this and automated my temperature, humidity and light cycles with a micro controller.

I will be making a larger scale one this spring, with a vegetation box and flowering box. Update to come in the future with that.

I germinated 3 seeds with 100% success rate using the paper towel method. Once the tap root cracked out, I planted them in 4L pots.

Day 16
Tried some LST for the first time, too soon for this?

Day 17
Removed the twine, seemed like the plant didn't like it. Maybe I tied it too tight? Thoughts?
Watered two plants today, last one should be ready tomorrow.

Ended up harvesting them, small yields but still happy with the outcome as I learned a lot from my first grow. Especially considering I had my heater stay on for way too long early in the grow and was surprised the plants came back from the amount of stress they recieved. I was able to see some defiencies such as calcium and seeing what nute burn looks like lol. Both plants yielded 15g dry weight.
